Getting started

Begin your day with hotel pickup in Agadir before travelling north along Morocco's scenic Atlantic coastline in a comfortable air-conditioned vehicle. After a few refreshment stops, arrive in the picturesque port city of Essaouira.

What to expect

UNESCO-listed Medina: Wander through Essaouira's historic medina, where whitewashed buildings, blue-painted shutters, and winding alleyways create one of Morocco's most charming old towns. Browse traditional souks selling handmade crafts, carpets, jewellery, spices, and local products.

Thuya wood workshops: Visit artisan workshops renowned for handcrafted Thuya wood furniture, decorative boxes, and souvenirs. Watch skilled craftsmen at work using techniques passed down through generations.

Scala Ramparts: Stroll along the impressive Scala de la Kasbah, the historic sea-facing fortifications built to defend the city. Enjoy sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean, cannons lining the walls, and one of Essaouira's most photographed landmarks.

Fishing harbour: Visit the bustling port, where colourful blue fishing boats line the harbour and fishermen unload the day's catch. Experience the authentic maritime atmosphere that has shaped Essaouira for centuries.

Grand Mosque & historic districts: Explore the city's architectural heritage as you pass the Grand Mosque, traditional neighbourhoods, the jewellers' quarter, and lively local markets.

Optional seafood lunch: During your free time, choose from one of the many harbour-side restaurants serving freshly grilled seafood, a specialty of Essaouira (meal at your own expense).
